Daniel, old boy;

The exhibition on duct tape to which you refer is an ongoing one, visible
weekly on TV. It's called "The Red Green Show"!

Amazing stuff, duct tape. I never leave home without it. In the army, it was
coloured olive green and called "gun tape". No, we didn't use it to hold
field guns together, but it could do pretty much everything else!
